Rock Island still had some in "service" at shut down.
GN livery is a very "smart" choice.

I've a good memory for whatever I can remember!
If you wait for perfection you will never do anything but it doesn’t stop you wanting it.
Age doesn’t stop you, it just slows you down.
If you only learn one thing in life - learn to think how your actions and words affect others BEFORE doing or saying.

Progress continues with lots of random bits and pieces to be identified and properly colored.

I am going to complete this...................I hope. This is a great offering but Reppo's mapping sucks. Everything is just kind of randomly placed with no clue what the shape of objects are .

Ways to go but for the first time this isn't going to be perfect but should be OK.

I just might be tempted to do an SP version. Did some quick research and found photos of those little critters in grey / scarlet, tiger stripe, Halloween (black with orange ends), and as-delivered black with white stripes. Also found a pic of a tiger stripe SW1 with trolley poles for use on the Pacific Electric. Mighty tempting.
